The performance in the 3-1 defeat by Brentford was unacceptable. There were so many things wrong that it’s hard to know where to start. It was not the way to open the new year. Everyone is looking for scapegoats and has their own theory: the midfield is an ongoing problem; the tactics have stopped working; […]
Brentford 3 – 1 Liverpool – Premier League Player Ratings Alisson Becker – 6.0 Made a super one on save in the early stages, only to see an own goal slip past him with the resulting corner. So unlucky with the second goal, with his team continuing to let him down. Was let down again […]
Aston Villa 1 – 3 Liverpool – Premier League Player Ratings Starting XI Alisson Becker – 7.0 The big man is back and had to be alert to some chances in the first half, but became more of a spectator the longer the half went. Got little help from his defence for their goal and […]
One of the more peculiar sights for fans of the Reds this season has been the sporadic emergence of Trent Alexander-Arnold popping up in positions that would usually be expected of a centre-forward. There has been a lot of discussion on the merits of this trend, how it effects other players on the team, whether […]
It’s easy to think of Curtis Jones as a forgotten figure during this memorable era at Liverpool. There have been clear leading men, whether it be Alisson, Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah, among others, as well as a plethora of supporting heroes.

Sometimes, all you need is one individual to make a huge difference in a struggling season. When it comes to selecting Liverpool’s best and most important player, the same four or five names will always be bandied around. Alisson leads from the back and is unrivalled in his position in the world, the same applies […]
Tottenham 1 – 2 Liverpool – Premier League Man Of The Match Mohamed Salah A sensationally gifted and important player. His killer instincts killed off Spurs in the first half, and the point of the spear was as sharp as you could ever want. With Nunez acting as the jagged edge, and Bobby the assured […]
Starting XI Alisson Becker – 7.0 Looked a little shaky on 15 mins as Spurs exploded with two chances, but did enough to keep the ball out. Was steady enough barring that. Had to make some good saves to keep the Reds in the game, and could do little about the Kane goal. Trent Alexander […]
With the group stages of this year’s Champions League drawing to a close, the Reds managed to ignore recent form and put together a very solid performance. Napoli arrived with a very strong side, and a clear intention to be the first Italian club to win all 6 group games in the European Cup. Luciano […]
